What is wrong with your car? Options

[blu94gt]

In inspiration from a couple other threads I've read lately, post up what is wrong with your car.

Mine:
1. Clearcoat flaking off roof, spoiler, and mirrors; paint fading underneath
2. Needs a timing belt within the next 500 miles or so but I'll probably wait
3. Funny sound from front left, suspect CV troubles but might just be somethin stuck in it
4. AC compressor dying, still works but whines like a supercharger lol
5. Car smells like ass from previous owner, re-upholstery and carpeting planned
6. Throttle cable has a lot of slack, but I can't get one shipped to this tiny town within the next month

Otherwise the car is in pretty good shape for being 11 years old and having 122,000 miles. Very little rust, not much for dents or anything and is mostly just dirty in ways you cannot comprehend bc of the idiot previous owner.
